Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 5.10/64 bit version.Is that supported ?

I want to install Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 10 64 bit. Is that officially supported ?
I dont this combination on metalink certify matrix

I know we dont get support from oracle.But, you initially mentioned that you couldn't find the required information on metalink, therefore I provided that information, which I thought you were looking for.
Is anybody still using this combination ? Does it work ? yes, we are using it and it has been working fine for over 4 years...of course we patched it to the latest - 9.2.0.8 to be on the supported release/patch.

Oracle 9,2.0 32 bit for Solaris can not access more than 4GB?

I am sorry to ask rather stupid question.
I joined company which has big SUN Fire running Solaris 9 64bit version.
It has system memory 16GB and 8 CPUs.
I found 8GB memory reported as free. It is production box. It is heavy loaded.
I guess Kernel parameter settings for Oracle set too low.
I reported DBA and asked DBA to improve.
My DBA said Oracle 32 bit version was installed and Oracle 32bit can't access more than 4GB system memory.
Is it true that Oracle 9.2.0 32bit for Solaris can not access more than 4GB memory?
32bit CPU and 32bit OS might have problem in access big memory.
But I never heard Oracle 9 running on 64bit Solaris box can not access more than 4GB.
Specially on Sparc 64bit chip and Solaris 9 64bit version.
I searched forums and could not find good answer. I believe it is rather obvious.
Please help me on this. I will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I was really surprised by the fact that almighty
ORACLE can not access 4GB memory.
So, it is true that 32bit Oracle is limited by 4GB RAM.Nope. 32bit almighty anything is limited to (max) 2^32 virtual adresses on a vmm system.
Often there is also some split where memory is divided into system and user areas, where user (program) has e.g. 2 or 3GB. All this works regardless of amount of RAM available 0.5 or 512GB.
Perhaps this link provides some useful info/background.

Change oracle word size (32 bit to 64 bit oracle on Solaris 10 OS)

Hi Folks,
I have installed Oracle Ebusiness Suite 11i on Solaris 10 platform (Sparc)
The default installation comes with oracle 9i database which is 32bit size.
Now I want to upgrade it to Oracle 10.2.0.2 64 bit.
Should I perform the 'normal' database upgrade ?
Are there any additional steps reqd for 64bit upgrade?
Thanks,
Rane

Oracle 8i release 3 (64 bit) on Solaris requirements

We are currently running Solaris 7 and are planning on upgrading
to 8i release 3 (8.1.7) 64 bit. I have heard that 8i release 3
requires Solaris 8, however I have not been able to locate
specific operating system requirements for Oracle 64 bit (only
32 bit). Does 8i release 3 64 bit require Solaris 8?

I believe so. You need to enable 64bit solaris. if your nvram
is up-to-date and your jumper is set to write position (from 1-2
to 2-3). You os tells you you can enable 64bit os. You can go
to /platform/sun4u/boot.conf and uncomment the # at the last
line so that it looks like:
ALLOW_64BIT_KERNEL_ON_UltraSPARC_1_CPU=true
Then do a reboot to start the 64bit os.

How to find out if the Oracle is a 64 or 32-bit installation

Hi,
I have a customer who has a 64-bit enabled Solaris 8 machine with an Oracle installed on it.
Is there a simple and quick way to find if the installed Oracle is 64 or 32-bit installation. Something like a v$ table.
Thanks,
Tal ([email protected]).

Hi,
if the database is running, start a sqlplus session. You will see in the banner something like '64Bit Production' (for 64-bit) or only 'Production' for 32-bit. Alternatively, especially if the database is not running, go to $ORACLE_HOME/bin and type 'file oracle'. The returning strings shows either 32-bit or 64-bit.

64 bit or 32 bit installation of oracle 9i - which one?

hi there - i have a sun solaris ultra 60 with 2gb ram and 32gb hdd and solaris 9-64bit on it. should i install oracle 9i 32 bit or 64 bit? Also after trying to install the 32 bit server version of Oracle 9i on the same machine we noticed a severe decrease in speed on the server but uptime doesnt show any processes taking over the machine. Any ideas? has it got anything to do with 32 bit 64 bit installation distributions for either oracle or solaris??
thanks in advance guys

If you have an instance running on it, you can query the v$version view. This will give your the 32/64 bit info.
SQL> select * From v$version;
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - 64bit Production

Oracle 8.1.7.4 32 bit and SGA size

hi gurus,
OS : solaris 5.8 64 bit
Oracle: 8.1.7.4 32 bit
i have seen documents saying that maximum SGA allocation possible is only 1.75 GB due to 32 bit application limitation.
is there a way in which we can allocate > 1.75 GB for the SGA granules?
any option like /AWE in windows?
thanks,
charles

OS : solaris 5.8 64 bit
Oracle: 8.1.7.4 32 bitAs far as i know mixing 32-bit database and 64-bit operating system is not supported - as 8i is.
Anyway with a 32-bit database you are basically limited to 2 GB per process. You can use "indirect_data_buffer" which will
enable you to increase your database block buffers > 2 GB....

Hi Anthony :
Do you know something about performace between
Tuxedo 32-bit and Tuxedo 64-bit ?
Thanks ...

Do you working in Bea or other Enterprise ??

Hi Alex, we are also using tuxedo 32-bit on Solaris 64-bit operating
system. There
is no problem doing this as your solaris version supports both 32 bit
and 64 bit
programs. The things to watch out for are when you are building a tuxedo
application,
you have to make sure that all the libraries you link with are also 32
bit libraries,
including oracle. We ran into build problems when some libraries were
32 bit
and others were 64 bit.
There's good information about 32bit v 64bit on solaris at the following
web site...
http://docs.sun.com/?p=/doc/806-6543/6jffrdmee&a=view
I personally would use 64bit if possible, but it's no big deal to build
32 bit
applications because my tuxedo application does not need a 64bit address
space
and is not computationally heavy. Most of the CPU takes place in the
database,
which in our case is Oracle, and which happens to be 64bit anyway. So
it's not
a bad thing to build a 32 bit tuxedo application that runs on a 64 bit
operating
system, for most types of tuxedo applications.

Then Tuxedo 8.0 32.bit ruuning on Solaris 8 64-bit. OK
there is support from Bea . Is that is correct ???
I'll need used Tuxedo 64-bit ,you could benefit in performance.

If the platform list shows that a 32-bit build is certified on a 64bit
OS, then you can run it there.
If you want an actual 64 bit build, it is because you want the big
address space, longer longs in FML, and everything else you get from
64
bits.
If you want to have an application span Solaris and Digital UNIX, which
is always 64 bit, you might want both to be 64 bits so that you do
not
lose any data in the conversion.
On HP, you can't link 32-bit Tuxedo with another product that is 64-bit
(Oracle for example). You might need a 64 bit Tuxedo in order to work
with other products.

DB Migration from oracle 8.1 32bit to 64 bit

Hi,
We are working on oracle 8.1 on 32 bit on solaris 64bit operating system. We are working on SAP R/3 4.6C.
We want to migrate our oracle database form 32 bit to 64 bit.
If anyone can help me with some documentation, it would be helpful. Please send to my mail id [email protected]
Also, please suggest some preperatory steps for the same.
Thanks,
Sailesh K

Dear ,
you are going to upgrade from 8.1.7.3 (32-bit) to 8.1.7.3 (64-bit). This
applies if you are running Java inside the database.
1) Shutdown your 32-bit 8.1.7.3 database. Shutdown the listener.
2) Take a cold backup of this database.
3) Install Oracle RDBMS 8.1.7.0 (64-bit)
4) Apply patchset 8.1.7.3 (64-bit) to this oracle home.
5) Copy your init.ora from the 32-bit home to the 64-bit home.
6) Edit the init.ora of the 64-bit ORACLE_HOME so that the following
    parameters are set as follows:
    aq_tm_processes = 0
    job_queue_processes = 0
    systemtrig_enabled = FALSE
    db_block_buffers= (at least 2000)
    shared_pool_size= (at least 150MB)
    java_pool_size= (at least 20MB)
7) sqlplus internal or sys
    startup restrict your 8.1.7.3 database using the ORACLE HOME of
    8.1.7.3(64-bit).
8) delete from duc$ where pack='JIS$INTERCEPTOR$' and proc='USER_DROPPED';
    commit;
    @?/rdbms/admin/utlip.sql
9) Go to Metalink, select Patches, and put in 1994933 for the 'Patch Number'.
    It will come up with a patch saying that it is for HP, but it is actually
    generic for Oracle on all platforms.
    After downloading the patch, extract it and keep track of where you put
    the rmsro.sql and invalidate.sql files.
10) Now run the following, again from sql*plus connected as internal or sys:
    SQL> @?/javavm/install/initjvmaux.sql
    SQL> @<directory where you placed the files from step 9>/rmsro.sql
    SQL> call rmsro.run();
    SQL> @<directory where you placed the files from step 9>/invalidate.sql
11) shutdown normal the database
12) If you are following this procedure because you are converting word size
    from 8.1.7.3 32-bit to 8.1.7.3 64-bit *ON SOLARIS*, then you also need
    to apply another fix.
    Go to Metalink, select Patches, and put in 2209569 for the 'Patch Number'.
    After downloading the patch, extract it and put the classes.bin file from
    the downloaded patch into $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/admin. This will replace the
    classes.bin file which is already there.
13) Startup restrict your 64-bit 8.1.7.3 database
14) Sql*plus internal or sys and type
    SQL> create or replace java system
      2 /
15) Shutdown the database
16) Startup restrict the database, connect as internal or sys and run
    SQL> @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql;
    -- To check on the progress of utlrp.sql, you can open a second sql
       prompt and do a select count(*) from dba_objects where status!='VALID';
       This count should keep decreasing as the script progresses to
       revalidate all the objects.
    -- If you get an ORA-29554 unhandled Java out of memory condition error,
       simply rerun utlrp.sql again and it will pick up where it left off.
17) Shutdown the database
    (Note: you may get an ORA-600 [729] error, which can be ignored.
    If that is the case, simply do a shutdown abort before continuing)
18) Change the SYSTEMTRIG_ENABLED parameter in your init.ora as follows.
    SYSTEMTRIG_ENABLED =TRUE
19) Startup restrict, connect as internal or sys and run:
    SQL> insert into duc$ (owner, pack, proc, field1, operation#, seq)
         values ('SYS','JIS$INTERCEPTOR$','USER_DROPPED',0,1,1);
    SQL> commit;
20) shutdown the database
21) Modify the database startup parameters JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES and
    AQ_TM_PROCESSES (and shared_pool_size/java_pool_size/db_block_buffers if
    you modified them earlier) back to their original values.
22) restart the database
23) check that you are able to startup & shutdown normally the database
    without hanging anywhere.

Oracle Homes 32 bit or 64 bit ?

Hello All,
I am working on Sun Solaris Sparc 64 bit system, EBS R12.1.3.
When i have to apply apps patches, we are going with 32 bit patches. Even when we upgraded java we used 32 bit java.
Now, I have to apply some opatches to 10.1.2 and 10.1.3 Oracle Home respectively, so do i have to download 32 bit or 64 bit patches?
Please suggest!
Thanks,
Moor

why do we have this confusion, when we are on 64 bit OS and have installed 64 bit EBS software, why we are going with 32bit apps patches?
If you have EBS 64-bit running on 64-bit OS you should always look for the 64-bit patches. If the 64-bit patches are not available while 32-bit patches are then you can safely download and apply the latter.
Please see the solution section (Can the 64 bit version of patch 8888184 be applied to a 32 bit OS? (Doc ID 1054058.1)) for more explanation.
Thanks,
Hussein

Where can I download JRockit 6.0 (R27.6.0-50) JDK (64-bit) (for solaris)

Thanks Henrik. My question is for the same customer that Alex K. was asking about.
The customer has pointed out that 6.5 != 6.0 , so according to the wording in the documentation, the "all later releases of 6.0" would not apply to 6.5 releases. So the customer would need a precise statement from JRockit product management stating that 6.5 releases are indeed to be included wherever there is a reference to "all later releases of 6.0".
I did spend some time yesterday in MetaLink. Search Knowledge base -> Oracle JRockit for download gives 38 hits. I did find older versions of WebLogic Server in 763603.1, but nothing for JRockit. If there is another DocId with the JRockit downloads, what is it? Will I find JRockit 64 bit for Solaris 27.6.0 bundled in the WebLogic Server downloads? Guessing from the size of the downloads for Solaris 64bit (they are hundreds of MB smaller than other downloads) - it seems possible that the JVM is not included (I do not have a Solaris machine to install and check). Previously I had assumed the JVM was included, but then the customer wouldn't be asking where they can download from (unless they never bother to look what they installed).

Oracle 11i EBS migration from 32 bit architecture to 64 bit architecture

Hii guys
I'm in a fix
Firstly clear me on this
1.We have Oracle 11i EBS Software running on 32 bit architecture.If we do customization in it will it be ported easily on a 64 bit architecture.If not what changes will be required to make this migration successfull.
Brief me from software as well as hard prespective
Kindly guide me to a good metalink resource on this or any website.I'm googling and eating metalink anyways;)).
2.Does Oracle 11i EBS software come seperately for the 32 bit and 64 bit architecture.
Regards
Fahad

The EBS Applications tier is 32 bit no matter what your OS is. On Solaris 64-bit, there is a special edelivery.oracle.com version of 11.5.10.2 that ships with a 64-bit RDBMS directly via rapidwiz.

Otherwise, you need to complete a word conversion of the database to 64-bit if you want to make use of 64-bit memory addressing.
